Getting StartedSomething is not workingIf no air comes out

If no air comes out

First, squeeze the air gun. If air comes out strongly, you can go ahead and use it.

The unit may be quiet and still be operating normally.

When the tank is full, the air compressor stops automatically. It starts again on its own once you use some air and the pressure drops.

1
Pull the hose out from the reel once.
The hose can kink inside the reel and stop the air from reaching the gun.
2
Squeeze the air gun again.
3
If there is still no air, check the power and switches.

Getting StartedOkazaki KitanoFinishing with deionized water

Finishing with deionized water

Using it for the final rinse helps prevent water spots and makes it easier to get a clean finish.

This uses the deionized water option. It requires a separate payment.

1
Scan the QR code on site with your smartphone and pay (550 yen). The unlock code appears automatically once payment is complete.
2
Set the 4-digit code you were shown on the combination lock to release it.
3
Open the lid of the box and turn the lever inside to the "deionized water" side. Deionized water is now ready to use.
4
Once the lever is switched to deionized water, use the pressure washer or the shower hose for the final rinse.
5
If you use the pressure washer, switch the unit ON. When you have finished rinsing with deionized water, switch it OFF again.
6
After use, turn the lever back to "tap water", close the lid of the box and lock it.

Your unlock code appears on the screen after payment

When your payment is complete, the screen changes to show your unlock code. Do not close the screen until you have noted the 4-digit number.

The code is not sent by email.

Turn the lever all the way

Turn the lever until it points to the "deionized" label. There is a click partway round, but if you stop there the water will not flow.

Correct: pointing fully at the "deionized" label
Wrong: stopped at the click partway round

When you finish, turn it fully back to normal water

When you are done, turn the lever fully back to the normal water position, then close and lock the box.
